The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has announced a $10 million humanitarian aid package for Haiti, where over 1.5 million people have been displaced due to political instability and gang violence. The assistance, provided through the Emirates Red Crescent Authority, includes essential food supplies and temporary shelter for those most in need. The program also aims to strengthen health services, water, sanitation, and hygiene services to aid the growing crisis.
Haiti is grappling with an escalating humanitarian emergency as violence intensifies, insecurity persists, and essential services deteriorate. As of the latest international data, half of the displaced population are children, and millions are facing food insecurity. The relief initiative is set to be executed in collaboration with UAE missions overseas, international organizations, and humanitarian entities. Aid workers will prioritize identifying the most critical needs to ensure the aid reaches those most affected.
